With JUDAS PRIEST‘s latest studio album, “Firepower”, confirmed as one of the most successful of the band’s entire career — landing in the Top 5 of 17 countries (including th eband’s highest chart placement ever in the U.S., at #5) — demand to see the legendary metal band in concert is higher than ever.

And North American headbangers will get their chance to experience the legendary band on a nearby concert stage this coming spring/summer, when PRIEST will tour throughout the continent — with the classic metal band URIAH HEEP as support.

Says JUDAS PRIEST in a statement: “Metal maniacs — JUDAS PRIEST is roaring back to the USA for one more blast of ‘Firepower’! ‘Firepower’ 2019 charges forth with new first time performances born out of ‘Firepower’, as well as fresh classic cuts across the decades from the PRIEST world metalsphere.

We can’t wait to reunite and reignite our maniacs… THE PRIEST IS BACK!”
